This is a must have activity if you're in Seoul. It felt so nice to know the history. Our experience couldn't have been better if it is not because of our tour guide "Jun". A very professional, intelligent and accomodating korean tour guide I ever met. Thank you for the great customer experience you have given us, specially the sweet gesture to my little one.

This is a great day trip. You get the opportunity to see a lot of different places, and there are extra conveniences as well. Our tour guide, Jesse, did an amazing job. he gave us a brief expectation of each stop before arriving with recommendations of things to do and what to eat, and booked things for us in advanced like bbq lunch, coin boxes for the alpacas, and delivered snack souvenirs on our arrival back to Seoul. Nami Island was our favorite spot, and I wish we spent more time there.

I highly recommend signing up with VIP TRAVEL travel company! The guides were friendly and patient throughout the entire trip. Also, if you're looking for a Mandarin-speaking tour, be sure to find Hong! Even though there were only three of us Chinese people in the entire group, he was still very professional and responsible in explaining and popularizing the history of the DMZ. Hong is humorous, patient, and responsible. He even helped me improve and modify my subsequent travel plans in Korea based on his many years of experience, which I am very grateful for! In addition, thanks to Hong, I was able to see the rare sight of North Korean people working in the fields today. I learned a lot of interesting Korean historical and cultural knowledge, and the experience was completely different from viewing it on my own. We all made wonderful memories together~

What a memorable trip! Hearing about North Korea on TV is one thing, yet it feels unreal and fascinating at the same time when you see North Korea just infront of you. Our guide, Simba was very friendly, cheerful and very approachable, and wouldnt hestitate to answer the questions we had. Plus The way she explained the histories of both North & South Korea made me wanna know more about these 2 countries. This was definitely one of the most wonderful trips ive ever had in my lifetime.

Excellent. The guide is very knowledgeable. There are many tour packages to choose from. The place is worth visiting. Travel is convenient because it's with a tour. A worthwhile experience to go on at least once on a trip to Korea. Hopefully, I can return to Panmunjom on the day it reopens.

We had lots of fun with Mario as our guide! He led the group really well and always gave us clear instructions :) It felt safe and we knew what was going on always. As for the activities, we had lots of fun! The suspension bridge was really nice and Mario also took photos for us everywhere we went, it was really nice of him. Aps village was really fun as well! But felt like we couldn’t enjoy ourselves to the fullest because of time constraints, will be nice if each activity was given more time to enjoy and take in the view since everything was so beautiful. Strawberry picking was a cute activity too and they were really sweet!! Everything still went really great and would love to have Mario as our guide again for our next trip if possible!
